Abstract

This document addresses adaptation to climate change in the design of buildings and civil engineering works. The document provides a framework, principles, and specific guidance for resilience design adaptive to climate change (RDACC) in buildings and civil engineering works. This type of design method will be applicable not only to new construction, but also to the renewal, retrofit, and replacement of buildings or civil engineering works. This document does not address: — adaptation to climate change in the production and procurement of building materials, components and devices; — adaptation to climate change in construction processes; — climate change mitigation in buildings and civil engineering works; — emergency management in buildings and civil engineering works.
